The development of film came alongside the rise of America as a world empire. The technology developed in the late 19th to early 20th century and quickly became a staple of modern culture and mass consumption. Many trace the beginning of film to a moment also considered the advent of the comic strip as we know it: Eadweard Muybridge's famous pictures of a horse's stride, which proved that in fact there is a moment when all four hooves are off the ground. This series of photos looked like a comic yet sparked a crazy idea in the minds of other artists: What if we took pictures like that and flashed them in sequence like in children’s flipbooks? The birth of celluloid film ten years later came in Louis Le Prince's "Roundhay Garden Scene."

In this free video series, professional filmmaker Kevin Lindenmuth gives you expert advice on how to use camera moves and camera angles to make a powerful, dynamic visual narrative. Kevin leads you throw every shot: wide angle, pan, when to use a dolly or crane, extreme close ups, medium range shots, bird's eye view, eye level shots. Watch these, and you’ll be ready for the Academy in no time!
